Steele embraces 'delay and stonewall'

With polling making Republicans increasingly confident that flat opposition to health care legislation is a political winner, RNC Chairman Michael Steele narrates a new radio spot:

“The Democrats are accusing us Republicans of trying to delay and stonewall their government takeover of health care," Steele says. “You know what? They’re finally right."

Steele also blames the weak economy on "this year's 'binge spending,'" ignoring the financial crisis of last fall and the recession it triggered.

The ad continues:

Republicans are trying to stop this disastrous health care takeover.

Republicans are trying to keep the liberals from creating yet another entitlement program, spending yet another trillion dollars.America’s already seen the results of this year’s ‘binge spending’ by the Democrats: our economy’s in deep trouble and our jobs are evaporating.
